in Microneedling 35 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling is effective for hair growth, especially when combined with finasteride and minoxidil, but concerns exist about potential long-term skin damage. Users report increased collagen and elastin deposition, but the long-term effects on the scalp remain uncertain.

community Microneedling and miniaturized hair follicles depth

in Microneedling 8 upvotes 1 year ago

Microneedling at depths greater than 0.6 mm may damage miniaturized hair follicles, with 0.5 mm showing better results for hair regrowth. Combining microneedling with minoxidil enhances absorption, but caution is advised to avoid damaging follicles.
